IMPROVEMENT IN wAFFLE-BAKERS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 143,564, dated October 14,1873; applicalion filed May 7, 1R73.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, SAMUEL S. FITCH, of the city, county, and State of NewYork, have invented. a new and useful Improvement in Pancake or Watlie Bakers; and do hereby de- Clare the same to be fully described in the following specification, and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which- Figure 1 is a perspective view, Fig. 2 a longitudina-l section, and Fig. 3 a transverse sec.

tion, of my new manufacture of waftle baker.

It consists of two boxes `or chambered jaws, A B, hinged together, as shown at u, each of such boxes or jaws being open at one or both of its opposite ends to receive one or more heaters or blocks of metal, C. The inner face of each jaw may be plain or iigured, or it may be formed or provided with cells and projections -like those of common watlie-irons. To

pancake or l each ofthe mouths of the chamber ofthe jaws .there may or should be a covert or door, to close ter the boxes or chambered jaws may become suiciently heated by the hot blocks of metal within them, the article or baker will be ready for use.

Its great advantage over common waeirons will be readily apparent, it taking up less room, besides being capable. of being used without the necessity of placing it upon or over a fire,

as becomes necessary with common Waffle irons. i

A condensing-boiler, as patented by me in patent No. 137 ,604, diiiers materially from my present invention, as such boiler contains but one heating-chamber, and that arranged to extendwithin the body of the boiler, whereas in my present invention there is virtually one baking-chamber and two heating-chambers, connected and so arranged that the watiie or pancake while being cooked is subjected 'at one and the saine time to heat applied to its opposite sides, and radiated in opposite directions from heaters arranged in the two chambers; consequent-ly I claim As a new manufacture, pancake or watlie baker, having its jaws chambered, substantially as described, and for the reception ot' heaters, as explained.
